# Chapter 103
|
||
1 My soul, bless the Lord,
|
||
and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
|
||
2 My soul, bless the Lord,
|
||
and do not forget all his benefits.
|
||
3 He forgives all your iniquity;
|
||
he heals all your diseases.
|
||
4 He redeems your life from the Pit;
|
||
he crowns you with faithful love and compassion.
|
||
5 He satisfies you with good things;
|
||
your youth is renewed like the eagle.
|
||
6 The Lord executes acts of righteousness
|
||
and justice for all the oppressed.
|
||
7 He revealed his ways to Moses,
|
||
his deeds to the people of Israel.
|
||
8 The Lord is compassionate and gracious,
|
||
slow to anger and abounding in faithful love.
|
||
9 He will not always accuse us
|
||
or be angry forever.
|
||
10 He has not dealt with us as our sins deserve
|
||
or repaid us according to our iniquities.
|
||
11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
|
||
so great is his faithful love
|
||
toward those who fear him.
|
||
12 As far as the east is from the west,
|
||
so far has he removed
|
||
our transgressions from us.
|
||
13 As a father has compassion on his children,
|
||
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him.
|
||
14 For he knows what we are made of,
|
||
remembering that we are dust.
|
||
15 As for man, his days are like grass—
|
||
he blooms like a flower of the field;
|
||
16 when the wind passes over it, it vanishes,
|
||
and its place is no longer known.
|
||
17 But from eternity to eternity
|
||
the Lord’s faithful love is toward those who fear him,
|
||
and his righteousness toward the grandchildren
|
||
18 of those who keep his covenant,
|
||
who remember to observe his precepts.
|
||
19 The Lord has established his throne in heaven,
|
||
and his kingdom rules over all.
|
||
20 Bless the Lord,
|
||
all his angels of great strength,
|
||
who do his word,
|
||
obedient to his command.
|
||
21 Bless the Lord, all his armies,
|
||
his servants who do his will.
|
||
22 Bless the Lord, all his works
|
||
in all the places where he rules.
|
||
My soul, bless the Lord! |
